An Unexpected Haircut

Why is it that scissors are so interesting to little kids???

To start the story, let me first tell you about our morning yesterday.  The kids came in like they always do, and they had their regular wrestling match with dad, then they watched TV while Erick got in the shower and ready for the day.  When he got out of the shower, I shaved the back of his neck for him.  Apparently Kyler was watching(error #1)......
In the afternoon, I was at the computer working on my school assignment (Error #2, I usually wait until the kids are in bed, however they were engrossed in Pocahontas so I thought I was in the clear).  All of a sudden I hear Kyler say, "I am going to show Dad how good this looks" I flipped my head around and saw Kyler with the scissors.  Here is the product of his work 


He literally cut it to the scalp.  I have to admit I laughed for about 5 minutes before I could tell him that we don't do that.  He told me that Joseph Smith cut his hair like this and he wanted to cut his too.  So, I took him outside and shaved it.  There is still a patch in front that is shorter than the rest.  I didn't want his whole head to be that short, so we will have to shave it one more time to even it out.

WOW! He was styling you should have left it how it was ;) At least he cut his own hair and not Bryn's. That could have been even more fun

That is too funny! I have been worried about Mackenzie doing that cuz she has been begging me to cut her bangs and I won't so I've been afraid she will try to do it herself. Tell him that I said his haircut looks fabulous!
